Laafy
At ten years old, Laafy is the kind of horse that tests a trainer's patience and an owner's optimism in equal measure. Four races, zero wins, zero places — not once has Laafy troubled the judge or even picked up a minor cheque. That is a clean sweep of disappointment, and the recent form figures of 13-8-11-10 (reading oldest to most recent) tell a story of finishing well back in the field on every single outing.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
What makes this slightly puzzling is the stable behind him. B Ellison's yard at Norton in North Yorkshire has sent out 43 winners already this season — that is a genuinely productive operation, not a small outfit struggling to find its feet. When a yard is firing on all cylinders like that, a horse with nothing to show from four attempts stands out for the wrong reasons. Laafy raced just yesterday, so the yard are clearly still trying, still looking for that breakthrough that has so far refused to come.
At ten, that breakthrough is unlikely to arrive. Most horses are at or past their peak by this age, and Laafy has never shown the form to suggest there is a big performance hiding somewhere. Sometimes a horse simply finds its level, and for Laafy, that level appears to be the back of the field.
